Hi friends! I am extremely excited to share all of the details of our cozy mountain getaway to Blue Ridge, GA.
WHERE WE STAYED
We stayed in a beautiful cabin named The Toasted Marshmallow. Tucked away in Necowa Cove neighborhood, this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom dreamy cabin provided us with unbeatable mountain views, convenient lake access and all the amenities we could ask for! With downtown Blue Ridge only a short 12-ish minute drive, we were able to browse all the cute shops and yummy eats that the town had to offer.
Check out part 1 of our travel vlog here:
WHAT WE DID:
Let me start by saying, we went in the middle of the week during Blue Ridge’s “off season,” so unfortunately a lot of restaurants and things around town were closed. BUT, we were still able to do a lot and have a great time! Keep in mind that when you book with The Toasted Marshmallow they provide a full binder of local activities, including hiking, restaurants, shopping, etc!
Great fresh, local food with yummy burgers, good beer and a fun atmosphere!
Fresh and local juice … need I say more?
Cute little coffeeshop in DT Blue Ridge… it’s a must!
Cool atmosphere and good beer. I got the milk stout and it was full-bodied, creamy and delicious!
Brand new poke bowl spot in downtown! Fresh ingredients and great selection for build-your-own bowls 🙂
Obviously the orchard wasn’t in harvest but it was still so cool to go and shop around the market and bakery. They had tons a fresh apples and also have a cute cafe during weekend hours!
Honestly we decided to do this bc it was one of the few things open but we ended up having a great time! The exhibit is fully decked out in research, findings, personal testimony encounter and so much more. Sneak peek in my travel vlog part 2 (launching Friday!).
Ellijay: (20-30 min. drive)
Cantaberry (There’s one in BR, too!)
SO.GOOD. I got the chicken pesto croissant and I’m still drooling over it. Annnnnd, their sweet potato fries were topped with cinnamon sugar. YES PLEASE.
Honestly one of the cooler coffee shops I’ve been to. So much seating, yummy coffee, games available and just an overall VIBE.
This little vineyard was so quaint, affordable and fun! They had indoor and outdoor seating, very relaxed atmosphere and get the tasting because they give you more like half-glass pours instead of just little samples. Thank me later 🙂
This brand new vineyard was just a few miles up the road and holy cow – the views!! They had great indoor and outdoor seating with delicious wines! Highly reccommend.
That about sums up what we did! We spent a lot of our time in the cabin because one, it was cold, but two, because it was so beautiful and cozy! If you’re traveling to Blue Ridge, GA, I cannot recommend The Toasted Marshmallow enough.
